Comment:

The beast in question here is that truly awful cover of "Hotel California." I pretty much love everything that Nancy Sinatra has done, but that's a huge mis-step. So bad it's essential.

The rest of the mix is a little scattershot genre-wise, but, eh, it sounded good enough to listen to a few times.

And there's a link up there if you'd like to listen. Cheers!

Sometimes the covers work and sometimes they don't. Personally I think Vanilla Fudge was the best cover band of all time.

Wayne Shorter! I agree with avocado rabbit about Vanilla Fudge. That version of "Keep Me Hangin' On" is bananas. I do believe I'm going to download this.

I listened to this a few more times. It's a great ride. Well done.
